Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat boiler to high and wash and dry all produce. Add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt in a large pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Cut bacon into 1/2-inch strips. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add bacon. Cook, stirring occasionally, until crispy, 5-7 min.** Remove pan from the heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a plate. Set aside, reserving 2 tbsp bacon fat in pan. Discard excess bacon fat..
While bacon cooks, break linguine in half and add to pot of boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min. When linguine is tender, reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, drain and return to same pot.
Pat turkey dry with paper towels. Toss turkey with Italian seasoning and 1 tbsp oil on a foil-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Broil in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until cooked through, 10-12 min.***
While turkey broils, heat the same pan (with bacon fat) over medium heat. When hot, add onions and garlic salt. Cook, stirring often, until softened, 3-4 min. Add cream and simmer until sauce thickens slightly, 2-3 min.
To the pot with linguine, add cream sauce, spinach, reserved pasta water, half the parmesan and half the bacon. Stir until spinach wilts, 1 min. Season with pepper.
Divide linguine between plates. Top with turkey then sprinkle with remaining bacon and parmesan.
